I searched the Internet forever before I finally found a recipe for my favorite Chinese food recipe. There was a little restaurant close to our house and once I tasted this, it was the only thing I ever ordered. It is SO delicious! Don't let the long list of ingredients scare you. After reading it, it's really pretty simple. WOR SHU CHICKEN 2 whole chicken breasts, skinned, boned, and cut in half 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon dry sherry Sauce: 4 tablespoons cornstarch 3 tablespoons water 3 cups chicken broth, homemade or storebought (low-sodium is best) 1 1/2 cups chopped mushrooms (optional) 3 tablespoons chicken fat or butter 2 teaspoons soy sauce 3 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules Batter: 3 tablespoons cornstarch 3 tablespoons flour 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1 egg, beaten 1 tablespoon water Remaining Ingredients: 1 cup shredded lettuce 1/3 cup toasted, slivered almonds 2-3 green onions, finely chopped (green and white parts) Oil for deep-frying, as needed Sprinkle chicken with salt and sherry and marinate for 15 minutes. While chicken is marinating, prepare the sauce. Mix together the cornstarch and water in a small saucepan until smooth. Gradually mix in the chicken broth, mushrooms (if using), chicken fat or butter, soy sauce, and bouillon granules. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Let boil for 1 minute, and keep warm. To prepare batter: Beat together the cornstarch, flour, baking powder, egg, and water until smooth. Coat each piece of chicken with the batter. Heat wok or a large skillet and add oil to a depth of 1/2-inch. Heat to 375 degrees. Cook coated chicken pieces in oil until they are golden, turning them once. This should take about 5 - 7 minutes. Drain the chicken on a tempura rack if you have one, or on paper towels. Cut the chicken diagonally into strips. Reassemble the strips into chicken breast shapes and place on a bed of shredded lettuce. Sprinkle with almonds and green onion. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve. Serve with rice.

I've been without a computer for three days. A long, long three days. LOL! Sure am glad to have it back! I've made a similar version to this recipe, but this one sounds easier. I will only use 2 chicken breast halves but keep the same amount of sauce. (Never seems to be enough.) DIJON TARRAGON CHICKEN Â 1 tablespoon butter Â 1 tablespoon olive oil Â 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves Â salt and pepper to taste Â 1/2 cup heavy cream Â 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard Â 2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon 1. Melt the butter and heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, and place in the skillet. Brown on both sides. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and continue cooking 15 minutes, or until chicken juices run clear. Set aside and keep warm. Stir cream into the pan, scraping up brown bits. Mix in mustard and tarragon. Cook and stir 5 minutes, or until thickened. Return chicken to skillet to coat with sauce. Drizzle chicken with remaining sauce to serve.

Glenda, no I haven't but it sounds good and different. Got a recipe to share? I get tired of cooking plain old vegetables, even though they are better for you than adding a lot of fat and calories. But still.....

Jasdip, I made your Texas chili this morning so, of course, I had to taste it to make sure the seasonings were right. Man, it it good! And the house smells wonderful. I made it early so it would have time to "age".

A great tip in that recipe is to thicken it with cornmeal. That one tablespoon did the trick. Oh, and I used round steak cubed and was too chicken to try the jalapeno powder so I used chili powder.

I'm so inspired I promised Harry I'd make cornbread without sugar (haha!) to go with it. I'm using the Pioneer Woman's recipe since I have buttermilk in the frig.

Thanks bunches!

Patti, I do apologize! I just posted the squash casserole recipe before I read your entry! I have an abundance of yellow crookneck squash and I keep searching for different recipes. Of course, we seldom get tired of yellow squash, no matter how it's cooked!

That's awesome Patti!!!
I'll make sure to tell hubby that you liked it! He raves about your Spanish Rice that I made, and knows it came from you.

It's time for him to make me some Texas chili! That's the only chili I like, as I mentioned. Love it with lots of rice

We had it on rice, too. We also topped with grated cheddar, chopped onion and Harry had sour cream on his, too. We are happily stuffed!
